Hello
to all who will be reading this email on this fine, resplendent Labor Day,
Apollo
Beach is a lot more wide spaced than I thought. There is a huge smoke
stack industrial plant in the northwest corner of the area named Big Ben.
You can always tell where it is due to all the white smoke stacks it blows
out. Besides the roads and small cities, the area is just filled
with rainforest like trees all over. It feels like we are in a civilized
part of the Amazon sometimes.
The
ward is not as missionary minded as I thought. Our ward mission leader,
Brother Young, is doing a good job and we have a few ward missionaries.
Bishop Falescini wants everyone to set a date and share the Gospel with someone
on that date. President Hales of the Elders Quorum wants us to respect
the head of the household and not teach people repentance or baptism. Everybody
else just is wondering what we should do.
The
heat is getting unbearable but that is because it is the last few weeks of the
summer before it gets reasonable. The weather is sadistic like
that. There was a lot of rain this past week. Due to it being bike
week, we got super soaked quite a few times. It's always nice biking
towards a few clouds and then a monsoon hits out of nowhere.
Zone
conference is tomorrow which is really cool. Whatever President Cooper wishes
to talk about it should be amazing.
There
has been some news brewing that we have a hurricane nearby. It is
currently hitting some islands and members have been preparing a lot
lately. President Cooper had us check our emergency packs last district
meeting so something is going on. Anywho, we will be prepared if anything
happens.
We
saw the Uprichards this last Saturday. They have been doing well and took
us to go eat lunch.
Not
much happened this week besides we biked around and had many crazy coincidences
where we met someone at the right time. There was no way that fate or
circumstance could have worked that out so it has built my testimony of
Heavenly Father's planning abilities.
Anywho,
I shall end this email out. I hope that you have a good week and have
lots of fun,
Elder
Fabricius
I
am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were
dead, yet shall he live:
And
whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.
John
11:25-26
